2 Weeks and 6 Days Old

Dear Ruthie,

We just spent a few days at Alyeska! Uncle Brad, Aunt Paige, and cousin Blaire are in town from California, so we spent two nights at Alyeska with them, Memaw, and Papa. Together, we:

  • Ate pizza for dinner in the hotel
  • Slept in between your crying fits
  • You hung out with Papa while your daddy and I played cards
  • We rode the tram to the top of the mountain
  • We snuggled together in the cold weather
  • Your daddy and I bought the largest coffees made in the hotel cafe (after a sleepless night with you!)
  • Took family photos by the fireplace and moose head
  • Celebrated Papa's birthday 
  • Watched people dressed as Santa walk through the hotel on their way to hit the ski slopes
  • Waited to see Santa Claus
It was a fun mini-vacation away with you, Ruth! You did not sleep as well as we'd hoped you would, but your daddy and I sure enjoyed spending those days with you in the mountains! 

Alyeska is a special place for us - we hiked there one fall (we experienced rain, snow, and sunshine during the hike!), spent our honeymoon there, picked blueberries there, and now we've been there with you!

Here's to many more adventures.

Love,
Mama
